Available on a monthly or annual basis.

Enterprise
Cloud subscription

State-of-the art tools and services that empower developers, increase productivity and integrate development and operations teams. Deliver high-quality software faster with end-to-end DevOps tools and services and shorten the time it takes to diagnose and fix issues in production. Includes virtually all Microsoft software, plus Azure credits, Pluralsight courses, and more. Available on a monthly or annual basis.

Multi-year subscription

Unlike cloud subscriptions, Visual Studio standard MSDN subscriptions (VL) require a commitment of 24- or 36-months under Volume Licensing. The licence becomes perpetual and can be cost-effectively renewed. Visual Studio standard MSDN subscriptions (VL) not only offer access to the latest versions of much of Microsoft’s software catalogue, but also support for previous versions for those working in environments that do not use the latest releases.
